Boston sports teams are having a good couple days in the Bay Area.
The Oakland A’s welcomed the Red Sox to the Coliseum for a three-game series this weekend, but lost the opener by a 7-2 margin on Friday.
For fans who also follow basketball, this was a double-whammy. The Golden State Warriors are playing the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals, and Game 1 of that series took place Thursday night at Chase Center in San Francisco, with the Celtics notching a comeback victory that shocked the home crowd. The very next night, Boston’s baseball team came to town and thumped the A’s.
